Afternoon Friday Ride

Last Friday Afternoon, we had another bike ride - this time we used our mountain bike. It was just a cruise ride around Berakas area melalui jalan jalan kampong - Jln Sg Akar, Science College/MTSSR road, Delima Dua, Pulaie, stadium and Yayasan School road. We practice climbing a few moderate hills at Yayasan and Sg Akar.

This area is at the back of Yayasan School. It is at the top of the hill and there were many cars parked by the side of the road. I didn't know that these area was used by 'hashers'. Hashers or hashing is a bunch of people running in the jungle following a trail of white tissue paper. Usually in other parts of the world, after 'hashing' they would drink beer as part of their ritual but as our country prohibited drinking beer in public so they just drink isotonic drink after the run - 100plus. Hashers are mostly made up of expatriate and chinese. You would seldom see the malays joining the hashing communities.
